From: Gary Klass <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: The Myth of the Superhuman Professor
For your consideration: The title is "The Myth of the Superhuman Professor" and it is by Professor Richard Felder who writes about teaching in Chemical Education. He is at North Carolina State University. The article discusses the, perhaps, conflicting knowledge/skills/aptitudes/talents of being an excellent researcher and an excellent teacher; one person may have both sets, but often that is not the case. Felder offers some interesting ideas to consider for those at research intensive universities and at liberal arts/undergraduate schools. http://www2.ncsu.edu/unity/lockers/users/f/felder/public/Papers/Mythpap.html
